Chapter 925


    Adrian must be delighted, right? Although his family might not wee her that happily, they were all


    polite people. They would most probably not chase her away.


    When she passed by a florist, Avery stopped her car by the side of the road. She picked a fresh


    bouquet of carnations. After paying, she entered her car with the bouquet in her hands.


    She was once again on the road. She needed to go past two traffic lights and go forward for another


    two kilometers or so before she would reach the Whites.


    She was humming a song. It was green all the way. The traffic was smooth all the way to the Whites.


    She parked her car outside the Whites''


    courtyard.


    She got out of the car and saw that the gate was locked. She looked at the shut door of the mansion


    too. It seemed like no one was home.


    She furrowed her brows and fished her phone out. She found Nathan, Adrian''s father''s contact, and


    dialed him.


    She had thought of the worst-case scenario. Perhaps Nathan had blocked her number. However, the


    call connected.


    "Mr. White. I''m by your house. I see that your doors are shut. Are you all not at home?" Avery inhaled


    nervously.


    "Miss Tate! I''m sorry! We are out on holiday now. I''m afraid we can''t wee you in!" Nathan could not


    hide the arrogance in his tone. "If there is nothing else, I''m going to hang up. By the way, my son is


    doing well.


    You don''t have to worry." "Hold up!" Avery said sternly, "Adrian has just finished his surgery. He needs


    to rest! How could you take him out on a holiday? Even if he wants to go, he can''t! Aren''t you afraid


    that something might happen to him on the way?"


    Nathan harrumphed coldly. "Miss Tate. I think I have paid you the surgery fees, right? I don’t need you


    to order me around. It''s rude of you!"


    Then, he hung up.


    Avery heard the disconnecting tone. She clenched her fingers.


    That old man has crossed the line! She has finally seen his true colors! He never cared if Adrian lived


    or died! However, she did not understand. If he did not care whether Adrian lived or died, why would he


    spend so much money to cure him?


    Adrian''s condition was better now, but he was still treated kindly. What was Nathan trying to do?


    Avery held her phone


    Avery was so frightened that she stopped in her tracks. Thankfully, the master of the dog heard the


    barks. She soon came out to order her dog to leave.


    "Hello, your neighbor, Adrian White. I am his doctor. I am Avery Tate," Avery introduced herself, "I came


    to check up on Adrian today, but they are not home..." "Oh, I know you! You''re amazing!" Thedy


    greeted Avery passionately, "But my neighbors have moved houses. They moved the day before


    yesterday. If you were toe the day before yesterday, you might have seen them!"

    Avery was bbergasted. She recalled what Nathan said to her a moment ago.


    "I just called him. He said that he brought his family on a holiday. Are you sure that they moved


    houses?"


    "Yes! I saw them moving a lot of luggage. Who brings so many things on a holiday?" Thedy lowered


    her voice and said," Doctor Tate, don''t get yourself too close to this family. They are a rather strange


    family."


    "Strange? In what way?"


    "They are a mysterious bunch. We have been neighbors for so many years, yet they have never


    spoken to us once. Don''t you find it strange?" Thedy said confusedly," They have been staying here


    for a long time. I wonder why they suddenly moved."


    A bad feeling rose in Avery''s heart. She felt as if she was about to jump into a huge trap!
